#3809 - c. 1888 Plaid
Wool Coat with Detachable Postillion Cape! Are you a
Sherlock Holmes fan? Well, if you were his wife, this is the coat
you would have worn! I just love it! Perfectly tailored and hard
to find wool "Sherlock Holmes" coat with separate
original matching lined capelet of hunter green, copper and tan
mini-checks creating a lovely plaid. Slight bustle back shape.
Two pockets at hips. Measures: 30" bust, 24" waist,
54" long from shoulder to hem. Very good condition... not
perfect with minor moth holes, some which have good repairs, and
one button (at top) different from the others, yet similar. I
just HAD to do it... I added the much more modern wool checked
hat (from the Cambrian Factory, made in Wales) which you can see
in some of the photos. It will come with the coat for fun! This
coat is certainly a serious, great, historic, Victorian
collectable coat, but you also will have your Halloween costume
all set to go!
